Summary:
Akira, a disappointment to his father, is sent to a language school in Australia in
the expectation that although he failed to gain entrance to a university in Tokyo,
he could learn a skill of use to the family business. It becomes a pivotal time in
the young Japanese student’s life. The relaxed Tasmanian lifestyle opens new
vistas; the exciting teaching methods of his new teacher inspires a latent love
of, and ability in, language; the structure of his new ‘Australian family’ and that
of his new Australian-Greek friend Stolly, provides a sense of possibilities for his
own life. There are, however, undercurrents tugging his homestay family apart
and Akira is an unwitting catalyst for near disaster.
It is a beautifully understated coming-of-age novel that explores the process of
grieving, cross-cultural understanding and friendship.
